 Because cmake is a real cross-platform make solution. Nowadays we cannot
 build tor in windows using any compiler available, we are restricted to
 cygwin/mingw. But what if I don't have them, but have Visual Studio? Cmake
 is a ultra-lightweight solution which does the work for most of compilers
 and IDEs and has a nice gui configurator. Imho it is a crime against the
 developers not to use it for build.
